Listening to a report about Google chopping down a quarter of a million trees in Finland to build a data centre while washing out yoghurt pots for the recycling

Getting into the later parts of "MIO: Memories in Orbit" and I can just say that this game is fantastic?

It's hard to take programming language benchmarks serious unless there are bouncing balls.

Back then: // LLM: make sure 1 + 1 is 2 Now: Untracked files: OnePlusOneUnitTest.file

LLM comments are the micro plastics of tech

- using LLMs to be 500% effective at 100% energy - using LLMs to be 100% effective at 20% energy 🧐

Haskellers and other FP weenies: when people say Haskell is good for making DSLs, what do they mean? Is a bunch of functions that reads nicely, solving a specific problem in your codebase, a DSL? Is something like OCamls Angstrom a DSL? Feels like a term people like throwing around!

Gray hair growing out of my ear: is it time to make the switch to Emacs?

Depressed whenever parents tell me they use ChatGPT to tell their kids stories. You finally get the opportunity to exercise creativity together with your kid: let's outsource it to the slop machine.

Instinctively responded "We can use our _brains_ for that" when engineering manager asked "Can we use Claude for that?"

I wrote a new blog post explaining why I think more people should practice "freecoding" (coding as much as possible from memory) haskellforall.com/2026/05/type...

I can suggest an equation that has the potential to impact the future: E = mc² + AI + GitHub Actions

City of None is an upcoming adventure game published by Extremely OK Games! Check it out on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3189450/...

"Make no mistakes" I jokingly said, followed by Cladde refactoring code completely unrelated to this PR — that code had been identified as a mistake.

My biggest pet peeve with LLMs right now is that it turns people I respect into lazy fucking imbeciles: "haha yeah it was Cl*use that wrote that haha".

undercover.ts just dropped

V*be coding.

LLVM 22.1.0 is out! This release was handled by new Release Manager Cullen Rhodes who I have had the privilege to mentor through this process. He did a fantastic job. Go checkout the release notes: discourse.llvm.org/t/llvm-22-1-...

Person getting paid by AI, writing on AI company blog, saying "AI good".

unsigned long long really rolls of the tongue nicely doesn't it?

Every advancement in computing is for a single purpose: MORE GAMING

PSA: SEMLA

They're frankly an acquired taste. Unless you hang out in underground programmer classes in a basement in Paris, there's a chance you've never heard about them. Anyway, they're currently my favourite type of types.

Off to continvoucly morge some stuff at work.

People talk about dependent types but where are all the independent types aka indie types?

In Xcode, as soon as I stop a GPU Capture workload it just stops responding? Great program.

Ligatures but they know what's above/below them so you don't end up with this horror.

Holy shit Americans discovered windows: www.npr.org/2026/02/07/n...

School taught me: - malloc bad - Dog.speak()

I just had my first Neovim crash due to some malloc shit, is the slop catching up??

Sitting in the cuck chair while the PO implements my feature using Cl*ude, asking me "What's a merge conflict?".

Fellow weebs (TypeScript users) is vstls what we use now???

I kinda enjoy developing on a Macbook because the hardware is good and blablabla that but holy shit as soon as I open XCode or try to do anything related to even trying to ship something "natively" to macOS I want to end it (in game).

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

It's cold and snowy back in the hills lately. Just north of Sid's Fork, the townspeople say a strange howling wind comes rattling down off the ridge sometimes. Probably nothing right?

2026: Ask "stupid" questions, ask for help, discuss problems and learn.

Ok... plenty of languages does this? :^) But do they also support labeled arguments!?

Haven't really thought too hard about this but is there a language out there that supports default parameters, but the default value is based on some of the other parameters to the function?

Yes honey I am coming to bed any second now I only need to figure out why I can't commit this reserved virtual memory it will be quick!

Not what I expected given the recent track record but _neat_! blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/a...

Code formatters, linters, conventions etc is just a big ploy to make it easier for BIG AI to parse and steal your code!

Do you make errors because of shadowing? Often, specially with pattern matching I find myself _want_ shadowing. In this branch we should always refer to this inner value, not the outer. Not having shadowing results in having to come up with names and sometimes people are just lazy and append an _.
